Topic

Updated qemu-kvm-ma packages that fix several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Description

Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) is a full virtualization solution for Linux on a variety of architectures. The qemu-kvm-ma packages provide the user-space component for running virtual machines that use KVM on the IBM z Systems, IBM Power, and 64-bit ARM architectures.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • RHEL-Alt-7.6 - Backport diag308 stable exception fix (qemu-kvm-ma) (BZ#1668424)
  • Trying to start a guest with hugetlbfs backing does not bail out so providing saying that hugetlbfs is not supported before actually trying to start the guest. (BZ#1672919)
  • Stress guest and stop it, then do live migration, guest hit call trace on destination end (BZ#1672920)

Users of qemu-kvm are advised to upgrade to these updated packages. After installing this update, shut down all running virtual machines. Once all virtual machines have shut down, start them again for this update to take effect.
